So I'm starting to breed goats, Nigerian dwarfs. I will breed them but I was thinking about ether getting a La Mancha doe or Nubian doe and breeding it to a Nigerian buck for milking goats. Any recommendations ??

Lots of people do that. Mini Mancha's and Mini Nubians. Some folks swear by them. Their is even a registry that has started the Miniature Dairy Goat Association because ADGA does not recognize any cross breeds with Nigerians.

I haven't had a lamancha but I do have a Nubian doe and will be getting another one, plus some of my boers are Nubian X, I just love their big floppy ears. Lamanchas kind of creep me out or remind me of frostbitten ears :hide

I haven't had Nubians, but I do love my Lamanchas. Really looking forward to having Mini Manchas next year! :D
